I wish you good.

  • Small Prophets, written and directed by Mackenzie Crook. Another show from him is Detectorists.

  • Delicious. I eat this at least one time a week. Just normal basil though, we don't have holy basil available where I come from.

  • Hihihi..

    From then on I turned is ass 90 degrees away from me when changing diapers.

  • My baby sons ass while changing a diaper…

  • My mother. She is the most self centered, hypocrite person I know.

    As 70s kids, my sister and me were unhealthy, hungry, skinny, with orange flaking skin from a fad diet called makrobiotics. We had an overdose of carotene and salt. To this day I do not eat or cook pumpkin, only the smell of it gives me ptsd. She would balance my behaviour. If you behaved too "yang" (probably adhd), 2 weeks of "yin" diet, which was just salads prepared in the most bland way...plus some slapping around or other punishments for a good spiritual esoteric cleansing. I was out at 14, when child protection services stepped in.

    My aspiration as a kid was to buy me a piece of cheese when grown up.

    Love for cooking started at boardingschool making toasted cheese sandwiches or omelets for everyone in our group for lunch on certain days. I was able to learn in our central kitchen (with the impressivly large equipment) where all the meals where prepared for the 5 groups (with 11 to 15 teenagers per group), and I was able to help prepare holiday specials. On wednessdays we had cooking class were we first would buy ingredients on a 10 guilder budget and then prepare meals, or bake bread and what not for the kitchen staff.

    Had a good time there. I was very fixed on preparing and eating tasty food, and am to this day. Trained as a cook lateron, and still cook happily every day for my fam and friends now with early retirement.

  • Dietpi is a great suggestion.

    Running rpi4 + pihole on dietpi for years now. It is overkill but solid. Updates thru SSH...easy does it.

  • For me it helps to have a fan next to my bed. It helps me to focus on the fan noise instead of the Tinnitus when trying to sleep.

  • First time I rented it on VHS back in the 80s, watch, rewind and watch again, next day same thing.

  • Idiocracy

  • Hear hear.

    We Dutch can enjoy these cultures now because of the ruthless exploitation of Indonesia and (North) African country's for centuries and there are Dutch people still having a hard time showing immigrants any respect or hospitality, and where I live in growing numbers. It is disheartening but I am glad not to be like them.

    Most of my cooking skills comes from learning from friends and family with Indo, Surinam and North African backgrounds. My sisters are all married to people from non Dutch cultures, so I am lucky there too. Also we live near the largest importer/distributor of Asian, Indonesian and Surinam foods in Europe. Very lucky.

    My mother is a racist though, we don't see her.

  • Heh, I posted about that history a while back. In the Netherlands we have a large community of Indonesian, Dutch West Indies and Surinam people, all with wonderful culture, music and food.

    I used to overstuff my rotis and have the same result as you, but after much practice got the hang of it. I also make flabreads that are much easier to make, like parathas and chapatis. Also delicious.

    Cheers!

  • It's not too many pancakes, but a bit similar I am making too many Rotis today. There are many types of (stuffed) flatbread, today dahlpuri roti. I am making a bunch for the freezer as well.

    Takes quite a bit of work, making the stuffing and all, so I already made the Doks Masala (Surinam style duck curry) and Madame Jeanette pepper sauce late last night to go with the Roti.

    Also traditional to go with roti and doks masala is boiled eggs, patato masala and long beans. Scoop that stuff up with the roti, no fork or spoon needed, bare hands. I am looking forward serving this tonight.

  • Don't bother and walk away.

  • The Nandan Hindustan masala spice blend is used a lot in the Surinam kitchen. They mostly have this spice blend in chicken, beef or lamb/goat curry with Roti (dahlpuri or aloo). Hindustan people came from British India to the West Indies about 150 years ago and are not per se from Hindu religion, but also for instance Islam or atheist and they developed a fusion of foods from different cultures.

    Pigtail is a staple in the Surinam and Caribbean kitchen and is mostly used afaik in (kidneybean) soups and "hutsepotten". I like to use it in freshly soaked bean stews.

    I always buy pigtails, salted cod and beef when I am at our local "Toko" here in South Limburg, which is also the largest importer of Oriental foods in Europe, so I have access to most of the home brands of Asia and also the Indonesian, Surinam and Dutch Caribbean kitchens. We don't eat much of the traditional Dutch food, as it is mostly meat, patato and veg with a gravy. It's nice but gets boring quick.

    Here in the Netherlands we have a large community of Indo, Surinam and Dutch Caribbean people, lovely people, rich culture and great food. I wish it all came to be without us Dutch having historically a monsterous hand in all of this.
